Rep. Ilhan Omar calls out Fox News, GOP for ‘dangerous incitement’ over her 9/11 comments
Rep. Ilhan Omar on Wednesday called the conservative attacks lobbed against her “dangerous incitement” after Republicans and Fox News insinuated she was downplaying the 9/11 terror attack.
On Wednesday, Fox & Friends co-host Brian Kilmeade questioned if the Somali-American is “an American first.” Then he proceeded to lecture her about her religious faith. “As a Muslim-American, you should be more outraged because they sullied your religion,” he said. “In the name of religion they killed Americans and still do it on a daily basis.”
“Nearly 3,000 Americans lost their lives to Islamic terrorists on 9/11, yet Omar diminishes it as: ‘Some people did something,’” she wrote. “Democrat leaders need to condemn her brazen display of disrespect.”“First member of Congress to ever describe terrorists who killed thousands of Americans on 9/11 as 'some people who did something,’” he wrote.“I hope leaders of both parties will join me in condemning it,” she wrote.
Last month, Fox host Jeanine Pirro went on an Islamophobic rant, attacking the congresswoman for wearing a hijab. “Omar wears a hijab. Is her adherence to this Islamic doctrine indicative of her adherence to Sharia law, which in itself is antithetical to the United States Constitution?”
